Triangle p has a base of 12 inches and a corresponding height of 8 inches.Triangle Q has a base of 15 inches and a corresponding height of 6.5 inches.Which triangle has a greater area?

The answer to your question is triangle Q

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Triangle P

base = 12 in

height = 8 in

Triangle Q

base = 15 in

Height = 6.5 in

Formula

Area of a triangle = base x height / 2

Process

1.- Calculate the area of triangle P

Area = 12 x 8 / 2

Area = 96 / 2

Area = 48 in²

2.- Calculate the area of triangle Q

Area = 15 x 6.5 / 2

Area = 97.5 / 2

Area = 48.75 in²

3.- Compare the areas

           Area of triangle P < Area of triangle Q

                                 48 in² < 48.75 in²
